We’re moving to a more "IKEA" style of assembly drawings where the first page shows the completed assembly and the full BOM / Parts List. Each subsequent page shows the assembly step with just the components required for that step.
With the existing Parts List filters there is not always an easy way to filter the Parts List to show just the components on that page.
- The Assembly Design View can work but most of the time we’re building our steps with Presentation views meaning we don’t have assembly views for each step.
- The ballooned one would rock if it wasn’t that it counts it as ballooned anywhere within the drawing not just the active sheet.
What would I like?
- A "view" filter that only shows the visible components of a selected view, that would be ideal.
- A "Presentation View" option that only shows the items visible in the Presentation view
- Ballooned with two options; the Ballooned option as it is now and a Ballooned - Sheet filter that looks for balloons just on the active sheet
- AutoCAD Mechanical like "Custom" where you could create custom filters on iProperties with operators Contains, Equal, less than, more than, etc
